S7edge SM-G9350-NO 4G DATA**I WILL DONATE $50-$100 TO WHOEVER GIVES ME THE SOLUTION** - Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers

S7edge SM-G9350-NO 4G DATA**I WILL DONATE $50-$100 TO WHOEVER GIVES ME THE SOLUTION** - Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers

The exact model is Samsung Galaxy S7 edge SM-G9350 64 GB GOLD PLATINUM
First I want to get this off my chest. I registered this week (I used XDA before like 7 or 8 years ago in high school when I use to flash custom ROMS on windows mobile phones-good times hehe)because I am frustrated since I bought an unlocked Samsung Galaxy S7 edge from a stranger using craigslist on Sunday night. The ad said it was T-mobile Unlocked and in brand new condition with the box and original accessories and it had some pictures.So why not buy it cheap for since I'm using a T-mobile LG-K7 with a cracked screen,right?WRONG!! The phone is working fine except I am only getting EDGE data!!! I found out that it is a chinese variant and it works fine with my T-mobile sim card here in the U.S.A except it can't connect to 4G and that is probably why the shady guy sold the phone cheap to let it become someone else problem I also saw 1 or 2 of these models in the box as well and he said a friend gave it to him and he is just selling it(B.S.) I forgot craigslist had scammer like 40% of the transactions lol, I use to meet these types of people in middle and high school when I bought and sold my used or old T-mobile phones though I never scammed or conned any one.I remember some people would act shady or too nice for no reason,probably cause they stole the phone and were making 100% profit off me.This same guy is one of them.
ANYWAYS THANK YOU FOR READING MY RANT---- NOW ON TO THE POINT OF FIXING THE DATA ISSUE
I am getting unlimited 4G on my k7 and everyone else on our plan is using unlimited 4g just fine.Samsung rep at best buy said its legit and its an international chinese variant and to look around on here to fix the issue. He told me something about the band and t-mobile towers to pick up the frequency. He said I got a really good deal if I can 4g on there. If not than re-sell it and make it someone elses problem. I looked all around google the past few days an either no one has this problem or if they do than the solution doesn't work on my phone.
Here is what I tried so far:
A) T-mobile reset the network connection via tech support
B) I factory reset the phone numerous times
C)I got the right APN settings set on the phone to be connected to nearest towers, a store rep did it for me to make sure.
D) I replaced and used another activated T-mobile sim card
E) I download some apps I saw on here to check LTE signal etc and its running very slow edge
*********I am on the sim status screen and right now as I'm typing this the signal strength is
-61 dBm 26 asu,cellular network type is EDGE,NETWORK is T-mobile, Service state is In service,Roaming is not roaming,cellular network state is disconnected*******
------I hope someone can pick up information off of that and maybe I could change some settings
E) I dialed *#*#4636#*#* and got to a screen to allow me to check phone information,battery information,usage statistics,wi-fi information-under phone information there are options to set preferred network types to: WCGMA,GSM, GSM auto(PRL), CDMA auto(PRL),CDMA only,EvDo only,GSM/CDMA auto(PRL),LTE/CDMA auto(PRL),LTE/GSM(PRL),CDMA auto(PRL),LTE only,Unknown. It will only stay on up to GSM auto(PRL)
....also when I press menu on this screen there is an option to enable data connection and when I click it,it won't stay,it just keeps saying enable data connection
F)I googled what bands this model and it is able to use and it has the capability to be used on T-mobile bands
What else can I do get the data working to 4G right now? The phone is running Android 6.0.1 and won't update to Nouget over the air. I want to root the phone and see if I can install a custom Nouget rom( since the samsung guy said the phone will brick if I try to install the T-mobile Nouget rom or I can't even do it since its an international variant-by the way I am able to have google services on here like play store,etc. so I don't know if that makes a difference to what variant and rom it is because I heard one or the other of hong kong or open china variants for this phone is better and can't use google play)and maybe I am able to connect to 4G data.
Like the title of this post says, I promise I will back up my donation I really don't want to sell the phone unless I have to because I will not get a better deal anywhere ever again for the latest high end phone from a manufacturer

you have to flash the correct CSC this will fix your 4G if you buy an device from a other country than is it possible that you get this problem but when you flash the correct CSC you will get 4G i helped so much people with this problem with a S7 device, i think this your solution
if this fix works for you just keep your money we are developers not for paying

Maybe you should post this in the T-Mobile section.
In my idea this should have 4G data on T-Mobile US out of the box as the required LTE bands are supported by the G9350. Did you check the APN settings? (VoLTE and WiFi-Calling may or will not work without t-mo-rom but that's another topic)
Also you should be fine to flash a T-Mobile US rom as both have Snapdragon SoC. You don't need root to flash an official rom.
Out of curiosity: what about 3G?

Thank you so much!!! People have actually asked through pm to donate to bitcoin first before helping me and here you are helping me first by the way.
I am going to find the correct CSC, what does that stand for? Can I flash a T-mobile 7.0 Nougat rom on my Galaxy SM-9350 first that the person before you replied about(its the link)?? I want to do both to have T-mobile settings and to use the 4G although the 4G is a thousand times more important. If I can do this than I am a happy man!
Why is there a boot loader and modem link attached to every post containing a ROM download? Does that need to be downloaded first,and what are the next steps,if so? I know these are questions I need to search about they are all confusing and mumbled and jumbled up. Even though I registered this week for help I was a member here like 8-9 years ago in high school when I was flashing custom ROMS on Windows mobile phones(good times hehe) but it got addictive,took a lot of my time from studying, and I totally forgot how do things.

Hey I made a new thread today in Q&A for GS7. The APN settings were put in by a T-mobile store associate and it still didn't work. I don't care about VoLTE/Wifi-Calling although I noticed some people on here are worred about that-its just something I never use.
Are you sure I don't need root to flash an official ROM?The Samsung Galaxy guy at Best Buy said it would brick if I used an official ROM because the phone is an international variant. If I can use an official ROM,I can't get Nougut OTA via T-mobile anyway as my phone keeps saying it is updated even though it is 6.0.1. How do I get the offical ROM manually on the computer? Samsung Smart Switch isn't even recognizing my device when it is connected and Smart Switch on my phone looks like it is only suppose to be used to receive files from another phone? I have the link for a T-mobile 7.0 ROM from a post on here that he used on the same exact model I don't know if I am suppose to root the device first or not yet since it looks custom made.
Thank You for helping me out it means a lot you guys are the best! I can already see myself on here a lot in the future doing stuff different android phones like I 8 or 9 years ago in high school on windows mobile phones.

The only data I am getting is EDGE

So, I guess something is wrong.
You can try flashing the designated firmware for this device first and see if this helps. To get the right one (who knows what all was tampered with) use best the Phone Info tool.

I've had this exact issue before, with a Nexus 5 that I bought from Telus, I am with Telus, it ended up being I had to go buy and register a new SIM card, then it was fine, might not be a solution for you but Worth a try,
Actually get a SIM card from your provider, have them register it in the store

Thanks I did that yesterday already and it still didn't work
I am a member because the owner hates the Iphone and I respect that

What would be the correct CSC file for this device? I tried to flash CSC from a SM-G935t firmware and it didn't work even though she said it didn't matter lol(senior member too)
I am a member because the owner hates the Iphone and I respect that

I'm going to try to find an official U.S. T-mobile ROM and flash with odin...but does it have to be specifically for SM-G9350? I don't think I can find one for that......
I am a member because the owner hates the Iphone and I respect that

1) Download this https://dl.twrp.me/hero2lte/twrp-3.1.0-0-hero2lte.img.tar.html and WAIT.
2) Download superman ROM: https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=817550096634750162
I choosed this rom cause it got nougat bootloader and kernel. Also download CSC chooser zip: https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=745425885120710484
3) Install twrp via ODIN and uncheck auto reset in odin. Then press power + home + volup to go to recovery. Put the superman rom and CSC chooser zip files on Sd card and put back in phone.
4) Install Superman rom,in aroma pick superstock kernel 'samsung pay and knox work' and install/update everything especially the bootloader. In mods stick to stock as possible.
5) Install the CSC zip file and choose t-mobile USA.
6) reboot and pray everything works LOL
I'm not responsible for any damage that might occur but if ir worked donations are welcome to help a medical student here

Nice, I like what you have! My model is different so I don't know if the ROM will work though I'm almost finished downloading it at the moment. Instructions 3 and 4 is confusing. Don't I need to put superman ROM and CSC file on sd card while the phone is ON?And am I suppose to transfer it on there via usb cable or can I also do it via google drive than open in up phone gmail and put it on sd card? Also do I need to extract the CSC file first to my computer desktop? That file takes forever to extract! Is instruction 4 suppose to be while in recovery mode? Also is it normal for my phone to show "no command" while in recovery mode?

Thank you ?
The rom will work because your phone is exynos based. It got a different model number because it's for Chinese markets. Put the rom on the SD card using whatever method, just do it before flashing the recovery, because your phone may not boot after the recovery to the stock firmware because Samsung has put some crap to prevent using custom firmware. I forgot to say that also before doing anything go to device info - > software - > and press build number several times to enable developer options then back to settings and go to developer options and enable OEM unlocking.
Yes, commands 4 are made in recovery. Install - > pick the zip file and install.
All zip files aren't extracted! The recovery uses the zip file as it is.
Good luck

Were you able to flash the U.S. T-mobile ROM onto SM-9350?
The official firmware can be found on https://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/database/SM-G935T/

I found it yesterday but their free server is under maintenance so he will have to pay to just download a firmware file.
I don't know why don't samsung provide them for free on their site!

SM-G900R4 - US Cellular Galaxy S5 Unlock

Hello everyone,
Sorry if this was posted already - I am typing this up in between other projects and I wanted to put something out here so I wouldn't forget. This last weekend, I purchased a used Galaxy S5 CDMA phone branded by US Cellular. I searched and searched for a way to unlock it but I was not able to find anything that worked for me. My phone is currently running Android 4.4.2 and none of the *# dial codes would do anything for me. Finally I was near a local US Cellular today so I brought my phone in and they unlocked the SIM for me so I can use it with other carriers. I haven't had a chance to go through the phone yet after the unlock, but I plan on looking at it tonight when I get home to find out if I can figure out how it was unlocked so I can share that info with anyone on the site who would like to unlock their SM-G900R4. I'm hoping that during their unlocking process, the hidden menus were left visible so I can look at the phone's file structure. I'll report back as soon as I know more.

Just a quick follow up... I didn't have a chance to go through my phone extensively last night, but I did see something that may or may not be of interest. When I got my phone back after being unlocked, there was an icon for mceFramework. When I clicked on it, it ran in the upper corner of the phone and when I swiped down it said it would be uninstalled. From what I have read about it, it has really nothing to do with the unlocking of the phone though.
Depending on what time I get home tonight will determine if I get to really dig into the phone tonight or not. I'm hoping there is something I will be able to find that will be useful. The US Cellular phone is a bit different though, as I mentioned before regarding the *# codes... No matter what *# codes I try, they do not work... even something as simple as *#060# does nothing on my phone - even after being unlocked. If I find something, I'll report back.

Hello, I came across this thread and just thought I'd share how I was able to unlock my Galaxy s5 Mini (US Cellular). I tried just about everything, but what finally worked was simply flashing the stock rom which can be found at the sammobile site. Use 'Odin', instructions included on the website.

Hello -- stock rom by model number. I think in most cases this is just stock Android for the carrier of specified model, minus bloatware and network lock. Well, I correct myself -- there may be some bloatware, but certainly less than what was there after performing the factory reset. The link to 'sm-g900r4' rom is at sammobile(dotcom), firmwares, search for model number -- and download latest version.
In my case, phone model is 'sm-g800r4' (US Cellular). Everywhere I looked online suggested that I had to contact US Cellular and request instructions for unlocking, but they will only do this if you have the original sim card. So, I finally flashed the stock rom using Odin, following very basic instructions (included on the rom site). After flashing, I still had the US Cellular splash screen, but my verizon sim suddenly worked with the device. Next step for me -- root and replace that ugly US Cellular splash screen with the gorgeous lollipop boot animation. Very nice.
If you need assistance with specific instructions let me know, and I can provide a quick summary.

Simple instructions, great site to join for US Cell users.

Did you ever figure out a way to unlock your phone?

NO rom really worked for Sprint version N900P

am using Sprint version note 3. the N900P, i installed Darklord it worked great tho no network signal (can't make calls) then tried AryaMod also great ROM very smooth and work perfectly tho the LTE/4g or any network data is not working (Can make calls but no internet if no wifi ) then tried Phronesis again work great no LTE/4g then again tried the NX MAX or something like that then Remix restriction i think the name of it. AND AGAIN work great smooth but the LTE/4g or 3g won't work. you end up with a device that has no internet out of your home XD I mean i don't know what to say to thanks the devs for giving this for free like really wow its amazing work and its all there to download with one click really thank you... although i don't get why the sprint version is even there as one of the supported version if its not really working... anyway this is not my point i just wanna ask if someone tried ANY ROM on SPRINT N900P Sprint USA version and it actually worked (worked as just worked) am not looking for perfection when am downloading something to modified my device i understand its stupid to ask for that. want perfection go spend 800$ and buy new) am just asking for a phone that make call text and have internet lol
TL,DR Is anyone Live in the USA and with Sprint version have the galaxy note 3 N900P version that tried any Marshamallow or nougat rom and it actually worked pls ? thanks in advance

Problem is this is not the Sprint forum and Devs do not have a Sprint to work on .
Sprint developers need to do the work .
You are also posting in the wrong section as its a question .

Choose SPR or XAS as csc in rom's installer.
Make sure after installation that the right APN is checked in the mobile network settings.

It also requires some changes in the build.prop file to prefer cdma and network settings associated with cdma which I don't remember right now. Even then, depending on the rom, none of that will change a thing. I learned a hard lesson to never get a cdma phone again, since my n900p is now on gsm, has no issues with roms anymore.

i totally agree, for an S7E port for example, which i think better than Note7 ports, here what is exactly needed :
1- choose SPR as csc code in aroma installer (original Darklord S7E port have this choice, AryaMod don't)
2- Check if these strings exist in build.prop or manually add them
Code:
ro.build.flavor=hero2ltespr-user
ro.product.name=hero2ltespr
ro.product.device=hero2ltespr
ro.build.product=hero2ltespr
telephony.lteOnCdmaDevice=1
ro.config.multimode_cdma=1
ro.use_data_netmgrd=false
persist.data.netmgrd.qos.enable=false
ro.config.combined_signal=true
ro.telephony.default_network=10
ro.cdma.default_numeric=310000
ro.cdma.default_alpha=Chameleon
3- unzip then put the attached library to "system/lib/" (set permission to 0644)
4- Finally, check the correct apn in settings.
I think that's all it takes.

Thank you for your answer. appreciate the help and info. but it actually work now been 2 days after updating and it work like EVERYTHING sms,mms,calls, LTE, 3g everything is actually working thanks to this thread
https://forum.xda-developers.com/note-3-sprint/help/note-3-roms-n900p-t3364802
read it all and this is what i did. flashed Aryamod. (am sure any other good ROM will also work) then flashed the file in the 5th or 6th page the fixed file the dude links the NVMO i think the name of the file that choose the network for you NOT THE ORIGINAL one download the one that the dude linked in the 5th or 6th page he said its the fixed one... then after flashing the rom open the phone then finish the installation then switch off the phone and flash the network file and choose Sprint i didn't have any need to do the APN (actually the APN was and still grayed out for me i can't change anything i even bought a pro version of APN manager and didn't have any use for it cause the phone is actualy working...
in case this didn't work flash the network file first then the ROM file and open the phone finish installation then close and flash the network file again... hope this will help.
the only reason i went for Aryamod cause i like it this method MAY (not sure) work on any other ROM darklord or whatever you like you can try its fun lol

The problem is the APN and you can not modify it. Contact your carrier and see if they can assist.

ehrn i purchased the phone it was perfect. connecting internet was showing 4g.. but when i installed this original Verizon rom it became difficult.. now i am unable to root and install custom recovery... please guide me to root and install custom recovery TWRP and i want to install custim rom.. please help

@dipankar.c2bs
You might look into getting your CSC "sales_code" changed. I'm not sure if that is entirely the problem, but it is likely related. Even the USA Verizon ROMs come preloaded with databases that are used to provide custom parameters for a variety of carriers and locations world-wide. (See the file /system/csc/imsprofile.xml for example) I suspect the way this information is actually used is through the "sales_code" CSC value, but I'm not 100% sure of that.
I'm guessing you want "INS" or "INU" instead of VZW
What you currently have:
Code:
getprop | grep -i csc
If your handset is supported by Airtel, one of their technicians will probably know how to do the CSC change, possibly without even rooting the phone.
If it not supported, they probably will be under orders of their employer not to help you at all. But, is is easier for them to give you advice face-to-face, rather than over the telephone (subject to monitoring), if that is possible.
A question to ask - a form of social engineering - is this: "do you know of someone in the area that can help me for a small fee?"
[EDIT]
There is one other possibility for a non-rooted phone. I really don't know if this would work (I am speculating here), but the basic idea is to apply a CSC for a closely related device Model (a SM-N90???? Qualcomm model, hopefully for CDMA/LTE) that is for your country and carrier on top of your existing ROM using Odin. Get the CSC file from Sammobile, and:
- wipe the entire phone using the stock recovery. (You can remove the external SD card first if you like)
- boot the phone, shut down, boot into stock recovery.
- wipe the entire phone again in the stock recovery
- boot into Odin and flash the CSC in the CSC slot.
- boot the phone; do a minimal configuration and see if you have the service you want.
Note that @donc113 s advice given above is the right place to start: ask your service (Airtel) to help you before you try anything yourself.
good luck.

when i purchase it was good... there was 4g indicator also.. no verizon boot screen.. but now it dont works..

One of your friends who installed the stock ROM apparently didn't understand the consequences of what he did. Stock ROMs set the APN for Verizon. Did this friend happen to make a backup before he did the ROM switch?

Flashing unlocked Samsung S10+ to T-Mobile Firmware

Hey guys, first time on this forum and I am trying to figure things out. I never flashed a firmware so im a noob to this, but I can definitely follow along. Here is my main concern:
Seems like you need a T-Mobile device to get access to features like advanced messaging, visual voicemail, wifi calling, etc. Things I use all the time, but I never knew it would be taken away if I purchased an unlocked S10 plus.
My main goal is to get these features back, which from what I understand requires flashing the firmware? If there is any other way I am more than open to listen to it!
I have Odin and downloaded the "userdata" linked into this post: https://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s10/how-to/g975u-g975u1-firmware-links-t3905897 specifically USERDATA_TMB_G975USQU1ASAT_CL15296297_QB21819666_REV00_user_low_ship_MULTI_CERT.zip
I figure I unzip to get the tar file, select Odin use data and only flash this file? Kinda clueless about all this.
In addition, if I were to flash I hope that Samsung Pay, Knox, finance apps will still work; also the warranty is still good. I know that rooting the device will/may make these unusable, but I just want to confirm.
Any guidance is greatly appreciated, thanks!

WiFi Calling, VoLTE are working just fine, but I get what you mean... I mostly flashed 4 firmware files: BL, AP, CL and CSC and couple of times did flash USERDATA too. As userdata file was not required to be flashed unless you want all bloatware from the carrier. Don't know if S10 needs this "userdata" file. You would want to flash I mentioned and specifically flash CSC file and not the HOME CSC(as it usually retains user data on your phone) and in your case you want odin to wipe the device. I want to flash too, but waiting for firmware to become available on sammobile website

Basically I should wait for Sammobile to upload those 4 firmware files (BL,AP,CL,CSC) and then use Odin to flash the firmware. Seems the instructions for that are really easy.
As far as the Samsung pay / finance apps, would it mess those up like rooting the device?

There should be no issue with Samsung Pay and other apps, as you would be flashing official Samsung firmware. Wait for firmware files to be available and then you would be able to see which files will be included and go from there. On my unlocked S8, I didn't flash userdata file and still had all T-Mobile features you were mentioning. If with S10 we will have the same, then skipping userdata is better as the device is pretty much clean without unneeded apps

I installed T-Mobile's Visual Voicemail app from Play Store, and it works just fine. (Unlocked S10)

I did the same. Figured if I was paying outright might as well get an unlocked device. But the Samsung's from tmobile have the multi line function and I'm trying to get rid of my iPhone. But I use that number alot as well. So that multi line function built in for DIGITS worked for me. If you flash it let me know if it has it built in

Wait. How did you get the multi line functioning on the s10? I have been scouring the internet for a solution

Curious, are there any features/capabilities that the unlocked version has, but the TMobile version does not? I ordered an unlocked S10+ (haven't received it yet) and TMobile is my carrier.
From what I've read so far, built-in caller ID, and the ability to turn mobile data off, are not on the TMobile variant, but I can't confirm that.

I don't. I have the unlocked version. But I have tmobile. Didn't think about it until I received my device. So If flashing the tmobile software will give it to me i will flash it.

Thanks for the info too! I am also quite curious about this as I have an unlocked S10+ still pre-ordered. Unfortunately, it's too late for me to cancel it and re-ordering it on T-Mobile before April comes around as I would like to use the phone on my travels by then (still hanging on to my S5 at the moment... lol).
From what I've read, the two major features lost on unlocked phones are EVS and RCS messaging. While RCS messaging is something I can live without, I would really like to keep the EVS (Enhanced Voice Service) feature usable on the phone when it arrives.
One other question, are you able to get the updates via T-Mobile on the flashed firmware or does it have to be flashed again for future updates?

What is EVS? Is that just another term for VoLTE?

VoLTE and EVS are different. EVS is an evolution of the AMR-WB speech codec (aka HD Voice) whereas VoLTE uses said speech codecs to work. VoLTE is currently recommended to use at least AMR-WB for good voice quality. As EVS is the newer speech codec that uses similar concepts to that of AMR-WB, it is backwards compatible with technologies already using AMR-WB, which includes VoLTE.
That is what I can gather, feel free to correct me if I am wrong in any of the details.

Thanks to all for their insight. Just an update:
I flashed the T-Mo firmware on my unlocked S10+. It worked - RCS and video calling are back! However I noticed 3 things: 1st I used the CSC, but it did not delete all my apps. 2nd when the device rebooted after flashing it went into recovery mode (is this normal?), but i re-rebooted it and it went right into my phone.
3rd while RCS is working on the phone and between my Android 8.0 Note8 Tmo phone, the Note8 cannot send pictures/files to my S10+. The S10+ can send anything to me, but not the other way around. Read, Delivered, typing indicators work. I am not too concerned about this as I am getting an S10+ myself next week so this will not be an issue.
Any thoughts about that?
Other than the RCS thing, the S10+ device is working completely normally. I heard you have to change the CSC on the device but I did not do that (echo, adb, and all that jazz) - is that necessary as well?
Lots of random thoughts over here!

Would you be able to help walk me through the process to do this. I used to root and flash custom roms to phones but the carrier specific and Samsung stuff is new to me. I'm interested in getting on the TMO firmware possibly for RCS but I don't know if it's worth the hassle for it yet

Thanks for that update.
By any chance, could you let us know if the built in VVM is working? (accessed from the dialer by tapping the 3-dot menu button ((from within Dialer)). You should see Visual Voicemail as an option, not just Voicemail.
I flashed the TMo firmware as well, but used Home_CSC. That didn't seem to matter, since Userdata wipes the phone anyways, but I'm curious as to whether that is why I am not seeing Visual Voicemail.
As for the booting into recovery, did you have the reboot option checked in Odin when you started the flash? Mine has booted to recovery before, but it has always been because I forgot to check that box.

So I have another update about this. When I included the userdata in Odin it reset my device. The visual voicemail is not working still, and i can't confirm (or i dont know how to confirm) if wifi calling or VoLTE is working as there isn't any real indication on the device. But all my RCS problems have been fixed!
...Except that all my MMS contains the "Subject: No Subject" header on every single MMS. Every. Single. One. I had to change my default messages app because this was just too damn annoying.
and yeah, i did check the box.

Is there a voicemail icon in the dialer after flashing? Or it's still not there?

WiFi calling option is within the phone app settings itself, and it would word even without flashing tmo

No. This does not trip knox, nor will it void your warranty. Tampering such as flashing unofficial software will incr the Knox counter. This matters because technicians inspect the software state (among other things during checkups).
Assuming they actually verify it, the device will fail this step (not the case when using signed packages from Samsung for conversion!). .

Hi guys,
I just gave me iphone xs max to my wife since her iphone 7 is already too buggy and slow. Now that I moved to s10+, I love it and but the customization option is overwhelming me. Happy though that its customizable.
Then I realize 1 critical thing. I bought a snapdragon USA version of AT&T from local importer. I am located in Asia. When I looked at the software version, its only at "G975USQU1ASD3" with security patch, March 2019. I tried for 2 days now to get the OTA update and it just wont come. Saying that I already got the latest update.
Naturally I checked google and found so many updates, and one of them, night mode in camera, I really want. Now I am a newbie in all of these. My question is.. how do I get the non OTA update? I don't have a PC, but I might be able to use my work PC. I do have an micro SD card.
In summary:
1. Where to find the update files? the non OTA version
2. Is it doable without PC?
3. Can I just jump to the latest firmware update, or do I have to do it manually one by one?
4. Will it wipe my phone, because I spent hours customizing it before checking the problem.
Thank you very much if there's anyone willing to help me figuring things out.
regards,

1.You can download firmwares on sammobile.com for your model
2.You can use work PC but need get small software named Odin and samsung drivers for correct work
3.You not need install one by one you can flash directly to latest one but must use HOME_CSC and make backup with samsung app named smart switch which is already on phone if not you can get it on Google Play Store

To try and force a change of the csc power down your phone, remove the SIM card and boot up your phone without any SIM inserted. After the phone has completely booted up insert your SIM and you should get a message that the network settings are being updated.
I purchased an unlocked AT&T S10+ as well to use on T-Mobile. Since you don't actually have AT&T service I would very strongly recommend that you flash the U1 (unlocked) firmware. There are instructions for doing this in another XDA thread.
AT&T firmware is modded specifically for their messaging, network and WiFi services. Since I'm not an AT&T customer I got no OTA updates until I flashed the U1 firmware. Immediately after flashing the U1 firmware and booting up OTA updates were available to download and I receive OTA updates when they are available so there's no further need to manually flash updates using a computer.
The current U1 firmware has night mode for the camera and was just updated this week to the August security patch (which is good for Samsung).

Hi thank you very much for your help. I appreaciate it. However, as you can see from my opening post, I kinda did a mistake and locked myself out of AT&T now.. I am stuck with Sprint after changing CSC 3x feeling safe.. then Spint removed my ability to change CSC via *#272*IMEI#
:crying::crying::crying:

You shouldn't need to change the CSC using the dial code. If you cold start your phone without a SIM card then insert the sim after your phone has fully booted up you should get a message about your network settings updating.
I would also still recommend flashing the U1 unlocked firmware.

Hi thanks again for replying to me. I tried many times doing this but as soon as my SIM card got in, SPRINT OMADM took over.. I can't even get rid of the notification.. sigh..

This might help:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/sp...-to-remove-sprint-omadm-notification-t3636264
That's apparently something annoying that's specific to Sprint.
To get rid of any US carrier stuff on your phone I would still suggest using the modified Odin (which can be found in the XDA firmware flashing threads for the S10+) and flash the U1 firmware version which is carrier free.
